San Diego Port Hotels

There are many San Diego port hotels you can stay in before or after your cruise. Whether you’re looking for something inexpensive to prepare for the main event or something lavish to stay in to complement the rest of your adventure, you can find something to suit your needs. The main cruise facility is located at B Street Pier, which is in downtown San Diego along North Harbor Drive. Nine cruise lines operate out of the port and with so much activity, a wide variety of hotels are available to meet the needs of every cruiser. Many hotels offer airport shuttles and are located only a short distance from the cruise port. Those that aren’t sometimes offer free shuttle to the B Street Pier for your convenience, but check before you book to be certain.
